Each boat should be mandatorily installed with GPS enabled navigation for fishing with their licensed zone. The fishing license zone can be divided either by coastal district or by state administrative Boundary. The GPS enabled system would not allow the fisherman to cross the licensed zone. The licensed zone would be a GPS defined Boundary between international maritime Boundary of the country and the state or districts coastal Boundary.
Each of the registered boats would have to pay and purchase the GPS system it would powered by the motor on the boat,battery, solar panels. Any violation of the licensed zone parameters the GPS system on board would automatically alert the coastal gaurds and the inland police station immediately. Any body on sea loses signal contact would automatically be considered as a boat in risk, emergency, or has violated by manual switch off. The GPS on board would have enough embedded intelligence to differentiate between manual switch off, sudden shutdown, and so on.
All boats registered would be tracked, monitored, be in touch with the Boat or Ship Navigation Control Room in the state.
The complete system would be automatically monitored, shall have features to store Information on cloud within it's (each states) territory preferably in the coastal districts to reduce cost of database, data center, data analytics and so on.
Such a system can be inspired from the ATC (air traffic control) system.
Such a system also ensures to generate revenues to the states in the form of nautical miles driven like transit or Toll charges. This also enables the Ships or fisherman to pay Farm Produce taxes or direct taxes.
In case of TN the data Centers, cloud infrastructures for Ships, Boats Navigation control system in the future could be located all along the coast of TN (Chennai,Cuddalore, Nagapattinam, Pondicherry, Rameshwatam, Tuticorin and Kanyakumari) could be districts that might benefit the most due to this idea.
The TamilNadu Fishermans for example are held captive or shot at or their possession have been taken away by the Sri Lankan Navy for whatsoever reason, similarly,such incidents occurs all around the world and globe. Hopefully the above idea would resolve this forever.
What do we think or say about this idea?
